3.5. Screen programming
Picture 12 Lower bar fine tuning
!!! NOTICE !!! The screen was programmed properly at the factory and there is no need to reprogram it without any
important reason. Setting of screen extreme positions was made by manufacturer.
If you need to change the screen extreme position follow the instructions described below.
Changes of the screen height can result in screen surface flatnes deterioration (waves could appear).
Programing the length of the rolled out screen (screen bottom bar position).
- Roll up the screen until it will stop automatically in the upper position.
- Insert regulation wrench included in the screen set into the regulation slot (see picture. 6) located in the left bottom
part of the screen .
Regulation knob “1” (located closer to the front of the screen) enables setting of the lower extreme position of the screen bottom bar:
„+” - means increasing the lenght of the fabrics is rolled down when the screen is rolled out,
„–” - means decreasing the length of the fabrics is rolled down when the screen is rolled out.
8
Regulation knob “2” (located closer to the back of the screen) enables setting of the upper extreme position of the screen bottom bar:
“-“ - means increasing the lenght of the fabrics is rolled down when the screen is rolled in,
“+” - means decreasing the length of the fabrics is rolled down when the screen is rolled in.
!!! IMPORTANT !!!
Do not decrease (tuning knob 1+) the range of the rolled down surface. It can damage the screen.
Do not increase (regulation 2+) the range of the surface which was rolled down behind the STOP mark, placed in the upper right corner of the screen. Rolling down the screen behind the mark can damage the screen.
Tensioning wires were setup during screen manufacturing optimally. It would be necessary to modify the power of the tensioning wires after few years of screen use. Finetuning could be performed with 2mm hexagonal wrench applied into the regulation holes located at bottom bar end caps. Deterioration of projection surface flatness wil be affected as a result of improper finetuning of tensioning wires. Waves at the projection surface will cause problems with picture quality in case of geometry and sharpness.

3.6. +DELTA remote control system programing
Parallel operation of a few screens with built-in +DELTA installed in the same room is possible; in such case control systems of each screen must be programmed with dedicated control code. The screen with +DELTA remote control system is supplied with single remote transmitter, it is possible to purchase optional transmitters. The optional transmitters must be programmed at the controller.
A) Setting of the new transmitter
Controller can memorize 10 individual control codes of remote transmitters.
B) Deleting of the transmitter
C) Appending additional remote transmitter
Appending new transmitter procedure has 2 steps. First step the remote transmitter supplied with the screen must be
set as the main remote transmiiter, in second step the optional new transmitter can be set up to operate with the
screen.It is possible to append multiple transmitters to the screen with the procedure described below.
